EDD Claim Processing Nightmare: Can't Get Through on Phone. Help!
Hey everyone, I'm having some issues with my claim processing. I've been trying to get through to someone on the phone but keep getting disconnected. Has anyone else experienced this? Any tips on how to actually speak with a real person? It's so frustrating!

Ugh, I feel your pain! I've been dealing with the same issue for weeks now. It's like they don't want us to actually talk to anyone. 🤬

Weeks? Try months! I've been trying since March to get someone on the line. This system is a joke.

Have you guys tried calling right when they open? I heard that's the best time to get through.

Yeah, I've tried that. No luck. It's like playing the lottery at this point. 🎰

I actually found a method that works! I used this site called claimyr.com. It's a calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to your phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/Ize0EkN4HDI

Sounds too good to be true. Has anyone else tried this?

$20? That's kinda steep just to talk to someone...

I know it sounds sketchy, but I swear it worked for me. After weeks of trying, I finally got through. Worth every penny imo.

How long did you have to wait after using the service?

It took about an hour, but they called me back when an agent was on the line. Way better than sitting on hold all day!

I've heard that if you select the Spanish option, you might get through faster. Anyone tried that?

Lol, I did that once. Got through quicker but then had to awkwardly explain I don't actually speak Spanish. 😅

This is ridiculous. We pay taxes for this service, and we can't even use it properly. Someone needs to fix this broken system!

Here's what I've learned after dealing with this for months: 1. Persistence is key. Keep calling, even if it's frustrating. 2. Try different times of day. Early morning and late afternoon seem to work best. 3. Be prepared with all your info when you do get through. 4. If you get a helpful agent, ask for their direct extension if possible. 5. Consider using a auto-dialer or paid service if you're really stuck. 6. Check your online account regularly for updates. 7. If all else fails, contact your local representative. They can sometimes help. Hope this helps someone! We're all in this together. 💪

Great advice! I'd add: document everything. Every call, every letter, every interaction. It might come in handy later.

Pro tip: if u get disconnected, call back immediately. Sometimes you can get right back in the queue.
